Message: [QUOTE="MaxwellCuse, post: 638880, member: 1240"] No. I've said before that 4x16 is nothing more than a fan boy's (or a sportswriter's) wet dream. And while Bees is certainly to astute an observer of the game and the business to be called a fan boy, this simple symetrical solution will not work in a real world situation where there are far more than 64 teams deserving of a shot at the title and more than enough politically savvy and influential guardians of those potential "left behinds." If we ever get to a situation where there's only 4 top level conferences at least some of them will have more than 16 teams. And if you have 16 or more teams some will rarely if ever play one another. In that case the next logical step is for conferences to split in two (or three in the case of a 24 team conference).
